Title: Materials Data on CaMn6SiO12 by Materials Project

Abstract

CaMn6SiO12 is Hausmannite-derived structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal I4_1/acd space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ca2+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are four shorter (2.32 Å) and four longer (2.49 Å) Ca–O bond lengths. There are three inequivalent Mn3+ sites. In the first Mn3+ site, Mn3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted MnO6 octahedra that share corners with four MnO6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent SiO4 tetrahedra, and edges with four MnO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 55–59°. There are a spread of Mn–O bond distances ranging from 1.96–2.30 Å. In the second Mn3+ site, Mn3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form MnO6 octahedra that share corners with four MnO6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent SiO4 tetrahedra, and edges with four MnO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 52–59°. There are a spread of Mn–O bond distances ranging from 1.91–2.18 Å. In the third Mn3+ site, Mn3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form MnO6 octahedra that share corners with four MnO6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent SiO4 tetrahedra, and edges with four MnO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles rangemore » from 52–55°. There are a spread of Mn–O bond distances ranging from 1.97–2.28 Å. Si4+ is bonded to four equivalent O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with twelve MnO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 52–61°. All Si–O bond lengths are 1.64 Å. There are three inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to three Mn3+ and one Si4+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded to one Ca2+ and three Mn3+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing OCaMn3 tetrahedra. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded to one Ca2+ and three Mn3+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing OCaMn3 trigonal pyramids.« less
